Florida Foreclosure Defense
Florida foreclosures are judicial. The lender must prove it sent the loan's paragraph-22 default letter and held the note when it sued.
Process: Judicial — court case; ownership passes by Certificate of Title after final judgment.
Pre-foreclosure notice: The mortgage's paragraph-22 pre-acceleration breach letter (a condition precedent) + a verified complaint (Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.110(b)).
Statute of limitations: 5 years (Fla. Stat. §95.11(2)(c)); each missed payment runs its own clock (Bartram).
Lead move: Verified motion to vacate the final judgment + emergency motion to cancel the sale (Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.540(b)).
